Vermeer’s hat Hat is a symbol of social
status, like nowadays Ipod, Iphone or Nike.
Men remove their hats while entering a building or greeting a woman. (How tiresome for the busy hand!)
Dutchmen are proud for they don’t have to take their hat down while meeting the monarch since they have none.
The beaver in the hat Due to the fact that Europe’s beaver had walked
unto history, Champlain asked Indians to provide beaver pelt constantly.
Beaver pelt can be made into excellent felt hat after chemical reproduction. It is too expensive for the poor to own a beaver hat, so they choose wool hat (Klapmuts) instead.
Klapmuts will loose shape whenever it get wet. In addition, it isn’t colorful.
The crazy hat Champlain monopolized the beaver hat market
for ten years. Till 1609, he was forced to open his tight grasp. (The price went down for 60 percent)
In order to keep his advantages, he moved farther upriver. He also changed a son with the local tribe as a pledge of mutual support.
Meanwhile, the trend of hat became ridiculous and exaggerating because every consumer wanted to be the unique one.
Art followed life This is a courting scene.
Rather than brothels, Vermeer chose interiors to show the change of custom. Unlike being as the spoil of war beforehand, women have to be pleased in 17th century. Men are no longer heroes of the independent war; they have to use romance to capture the opposite sex.
The exchange of color between land and sea in the Holland map hung in the back.
The transition These reversals were part of
the larger transition that Dutch society was undergoing in Vermeer’s time: from military to civil society, from monarchy to republicanism, from Catholicism to Calvinism, merchant house to corporation, empire to nation, war to trade.

Fifty beaver pelt── founded good relationship between both sides.
Why the trade was such a success?
Before the 15 thc.→ indigenous→ overtrapping.
In the 16 thc. → sheep’s wool and rabbit hair → not ideal.
The end of 16 thc.→ Siberia→unreliable
→ Canada The value between Native and
European was different.
